Maggie's bullion, highly recommend Australian dealer,

[Dave]

Hi, would like to recommend www.maggiesbullion.com. Have dealt with Maggie many times , great dealer for all Perth mint and Australian silver,

[Danny-boy]

Thanks Dave, I have looked but never purchased.

The import VAT can be a killer from "actual websites" as they generally won't mark down in value or content.

Very good range though.

[Dave]

Hi Danny , you can talk to Maggie , she will work with you.

[Danny-boy]

Great news, thanks Dave.

When purchasing from outside the UK and trying to get them dispatched under the radar so to speak what does the vendor have to do?

 

If they mark the value down as less and they went missing in the post would the vendor lose out off of the insured amount lost being less than actually is? 

 

All of my purchases so far have been from within the UK so far but can see that there is definitely a benefit from buying from elsewhere especially if VAT can be reduced or completely avoided.

I am not to sure on this. I think the declared customs value, and the insured value can be too separate things. Or maybe they just post at the buyers risk, you will have to check with the specific dealer.

Speaking about Maggie, I think she maybe might be becoming an official sponsor for The Silver Forum so look out for her sub section on the forum.

[Dave]

You can't have it both ways when shipping from vat free countries , you take the risk with lower value and no insurance, that said the gift threshold in Ireland inc postage costs is €75.00 . If the contents value is €20.00 and the insured value is €200.00 ,you will get done for duty . Never had any trouble getting packages through if described as souvenir or medallion , with low value

[Danny-boy]

Yeah, it gets insured as what it's written up for, the rest is buyers risk if that's the route they choose to go.

Good news. Now we need official sponsors from the UK.

What we really need is more members. I want to see this new Silver Gallery on here full of beautiful silver photos

[Danny-boy]

I can't see it on Tapatalk, but haven't had a proper proper look.

I'll have a look in a bit.

Now try Danny, it will work.

[Danny-boy]

It does work, but when I click on it it says oops there was an error.

I'll check in on it later bud.

And I bet you were sat there wondering why nobody was posting pics. Lol

Everyone's iPhone / iPad seems to have errors, ha. PM me later if you still can't get it to work and I'll figure out what the problem is tomorrow morning. Here the tapatalk forum link works fine.

Can Highly recommend Maggie as a top ethical seller and lovely Lady to boot.

I had good correspondence with Maggie in the past.

Her prices were very attractive BUT adding the shipping and assuming we will be charged VAT, it didn't make economic sense to order from her.

Real pity though but those seeking specific coins might wish to keep her in mind.

 

Trying to get under the radar is just not worth it and you may win some and loose some but the net result is neutral unfortunately.

Another possiblilty is to get an "agent" in the USA that can buy cheap ( i.e. no tax ) from the big guys like Apmex, Gainsville etc. and ship to us for a nominal fee.

A friend or relative might be the way forward.

Real pity that I am retired now as I used to travel frequently to the USA and could have hand carried a couple of tubes rather than duty frees but those days are gone.

[maggie]

Hello everyone, I will be here and keen to work with you. I can keep shipping costs low and I have an attractive range of products.

I will progress my sub forum in the coming days and look forward to positive communication with all members.

 

Regards Maggie

I have dealt with Maggie in the past.
Some excellent coins, good porices, good service. And if things go wrong, she is quick to put them right again. What more can you say?

There are some coins I especially like, but for the same reason as you say here, the additional cost is just too crazy.

If we were all neighbours we could combine orders as to decrease the additional cost haha.

[Danny-boy]

It's a shame really.

I'm gonna risk it and see what happens.
